Our story

Why we built SurkleS

"Close when it matters. Private the rest of the time."

India is one of the most rewarding places in the world to travel, and one of the hardest to navigate alone. A first hour in a new city can be confusing. A late train, a wrong turn, an unfamiliar pharmacy counter: small things that become big when nobody around you knows you are there.

SurkleS started from that gap. We wanted a travel companion that puts safety before everything else, without turning a holiday into a monitoring exercise. So the app leads with the emergency numbers that work in every Indian state, a hold-to-call line to 112, and a city brief that tells you what to watch for today.

Then there are the people around you. Family at home, friends on the trip, and the agency that booked it: SurkleS lets you share arrivals and departures with the people you choose, for the time you choose, and nothing more.

Made in India, for everyone who travels here.

Circles

Close but private.

A circle is the small group that travels with you, or waits for you at home. SurkleS tells them when you have arrived and when you have left, not where you are every minute. If you want to be seen live, you switch it on for a fixed window, and it switches itself off.

infoCircles are separate from agency linking. Your agency sees your trip; your circle sees your arrivals. Two live connections are free.
Scroll · a trip, shared with the circle
route

Plan & share a trip.

Priya's Goa weekend is shared with the Goa trip group: the dates, the four stops, who is going. Asha's Konkan drive is up next, shared with Family.

where_to_vote

Arrivals, not a trail.

At each stop the circle gets a ping: checked in at Anjuna, 2 of 4 stops. Where she is in between stays hers.

sensors

Live only when she says.

Share my location for a while: one hour, four hours, or until she turns it off. Every live share has an end.

Close but private.
If something goes wrong

Help from your circle.

SOS to an agency is one thing. This is the other: one button that tells the people Emma chose, nearest first, and opens her live location to whoever comes. No call centre, nobody outside the circle.

infoHelp alerts reach circle members inside the app today. Phone push notifications for circle members are on the way. In an emergency, hold the 112 button on Safety.
SurkleS for business

Two kinds of business. One idea: the office sees what the person on the ground sees.

For a hotel or a travel agency, that person is a guest who should feel looked after. For a service company, it is a technician whose day should be clear to both sides. Same app, two doors.

Door one · Hotels & Travel Agencies

A premium experience, from arrival to the last day.

A guest links with one invite code. From then on the desk sees the same live card the guest sees: where they are in the stay or the trip, what is next, and whether anything needs attention. For a hotel, trips are stays and arrivals are check-ins; the screens read in the hotel's own words.

infoSOS alerts reach the desk inside the app. Phone push and SMS alerts are on the way; until then, keep the app open on the desk during a trip.

Door two · Teams, for the service industry

The office and the worker on the same page.

Service companies run their day from SurkleS: shifts, jobs, the day drawn on a map, and hours and kilometres without a spreadsheet. Below, one real day from the pilot data: the office's view first, then the same day on the worker's phone.

timer

Hours and kilometres.

Time on duty and road distance per person per day, with a CSV export.

inventory_2

Inventory with expiry.

Stock lots, earliest-expiry-first picking, and alerts when something runs low.

How it works

Three steps.

1

Open SurkleS on the web or in the app.

Travellers, hotels, agencies and teams each have their own side.

2

Set your city and your trip.

The city brief, the emergency numbers and the planner follow you from there.

3

Add the people who matter.

Link your agency or hotel with their invite code, or start a circle with family and friends.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Is SurkleS on the web or in an app?expand_more

Both. SurkleS works on the web and in the app, for travellers, for agencies and hotels, and for field teams. The Android app is downloaded directly from us at app.surkles.in/app, and it updates itself. It is not on the Play Store yet.

Does SOS call the police?expand_more

No. SOS alerts the agency or hotel you are linked with, inside their app, and attaches your medical and contact details. For emergency services, hold the 112 button. If your SOS is not acknowledged within 90 seconds, the app prompts you to call 112.

I am not travelling with an agency. What do I get?expand_more

Everything except SOS: the emergency numbers, hold-to-call 112, the city brief, the planner, documents, circles, the assistant and the community.

Who can see my location?expand_more

Nobody, unless you share it. A live share in a circle has an end time you set. An agency sees your trip plan and the arrivals you report. Field workers are tracked only while a shift is on, and can see who has looked.

Where is my data kept?expand_more

On servers in India (Mumbai region). AI questions are answered by Google's Gemini model and map lookups use Google Maps, so those requests leave the app. See the Privacy Policy for the full list.

Is it free?expand_more

Yes, for travellers, during the pilot. Agencies, hotels and teams: talk to us.

Can I delete my account?expand_more

Yes. Write to contact@surkles.in from the address you signed up with and we delete it. Field workers can also delete their own location history in the app, and download a copy first.
